Sweet November Preview Day 3 "Jilly's Candle and Mia's Confetti"

It's the third and final day of January Sweet November previews. Today we are featuring Jilly's Candle and Mia's Confetti

First is Jilly clutching a birthday candle. After coloring her up with Copic, I cut her out and then positioned her as if she was about to place the candle on top of the cupcake which was created using the new C.C. Designs Cupcake Cutter die. I added three more paper candles and placed a sentiment strip across them. The "flames" in the candles were cut using an old Quickutz die. You will also see this card along with many more of the Sweet November January release on the All That Scraps blog today so please stop by there to take a looksee.
